It's Nearly Africa (2001 Digital Remaster) - XTC
Chant your spirit free;
Rush to greet truth like a dart
Shake your bag obones
Shake your bag obones
That's not traffic roar
That's a leopard in your heart
Shake your bag obones
Shake your bag obones
Go tell your stale friends
Go tell false prophets
And drug traffickers
Not to try to push
Our bodies any faster
Were dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
Its nearly africa
Oh-oh
Its nearly africa
Oh-oh
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Unplug future plans;
Finger-paint the sun on you
Shake your bag obones
Shake your bag obones
Mend your missing links
I think trust should be the glue
Shake your bag obones
Shake your bag obones
Go tell your warboys
Go tell all leeches
And blind panickers
Not to try to push
Your bodies any faster
Were dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
Its nearly africa
Oh-oh
Its nearly africa
Oh-oh
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Our civilisation car is running wild
Who did you give the wheel to
The fat man driving us over
The edge of the nearest cliff-face
Is he the same God that
I've seen you kneel to
Go tell your stale friends
Go tell false prophets and drug traffickers
Not to try to push our bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly Africa (oh)
It's nearly Africa (oh)
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
Any day now
Any day now now
